There are things only people with social anxiety will understand. From having to deal with frequent panic attacks to being overly concerned about one’s appearance. We all know the feeling of being nervous or uncomfortable in a social situation. But, if you have social anxiety, these types of situations become too stressful.
Social anxiety disorder, also known as social phobia, is the fear of social situations that involve interaction with other people. You could say social anxiety is the fear and anxiety of being negatively judged by others. Some people who are introverted feel anxious and may unintentionally create socially awkward situations. However, there are some differences between introversion and social anxiety.
If you have social anxiety, you may go out of your way to avoid all social interactions because things like making small talk and eye contact make you uncomfortable. These are the common things only people with social anxiety will understand - and deal with on a regular basis.
While you may feel alone, you should know that this condition is quite common! It’s estimated that about 7% of the population suffers from some form of social anxiety.

Psychological studies show that smart people have fewer friends in general. Yes, the realer you are, the fewer friends you have! That being said, highly intelligent people do value their friends, and they keep them tight. And, if you’ve got a tight circle yourself, this video may explain why!
Having above average intelligence means that someone is better able to adapt to modern life, and they are not as tied to humanity's evolutionary predilections. This means that smart people have fewer friends because they don't have as much of a need for social interaction.
Friendship is perhaps one of the deepest bonds in human life. It’s forged through mutual trust, unconditional support and of course, selflessness. Smart people realize the importance of having REAL friends, and they value those friendships deeply.

Here are the things you should know if you love a highly sensitive person! Because loving highly sensitive people is not an average experience. HSP’s need to be loved differently than others. There are many things you have to take into consideration when in a relationship with someone of this nature.
Understanding highly sensitive people will help you communicate with them more effectively, and strengthen your bond as well. These people are so highly attuned with their nervous system, that they feel emotions in a very real and complex way. They love differently than others do, putting their heart and soul into every gesture, word, and action… And this can take a little getting used to.
Loving a highly sensitive and empathic person means they will call you out on your feelings and thoughts. You won't be able to keep secrets from them. They can sense things going on deep beneath the surface, and they don’t like to play games. On the downside of being sensitive lies the inability to get over things easily. If you break up with an HSP, you will likely experience more drama than with others.
While loving such a person might be complicated, they hold some wonderful characteristics that will make having them in your life a truly unique experience.

There are many reasons why highly intelligent people struggle with love and relationships. While it’s true that we are hardwired to connect with others, many people have a hard time finding love. And it’s even more difficult for those with a high IQ!
Smart people often view love as nonsensical or even unreasonable - they just can’t wrap their heads around it. Many of them actually consider dating as a traditional and outdated practice. Because of this, a lot of intelligent people try to avoid love and relationships all together.
Of course, this doesn’t mean that you have to be dumb to fall in love… But studies suggest that the more intelligent you are, the harder it may be for you to find love.

Take a closer look at some of the surprising signs of mentally strong people. Mental strength isn’t something you are born with – it’s a choice and an attitude. We all go through hard times in life, but mentally tough people are able to learn from negative experiences. However, that’s not ALL it takes… It’s how they think, how they act, and how they treat themselves, and others.
We encounter all sorts of different personalities throughout our daily lives, and a mentally tough person accepts toxic people and inspirational people alike. However, they don’t let either of them rule their emotions. One of the most important characteristics of mentally strong people is their ability to adapt. They are flexible in all of life’s situations. And instead of complaining about something that went wrong, they try to figure out WHY it went wrong. Whether it is a financial loss or personal health problems, having mental strength helps them push through the hardships and patiently await positive results.
These individuals are independent, and they understand themselves better than anyone else can. But, one of the most surprising signs of mentally strong people, is the ability to accept and love themselves for who they are.

What are the differences between introvert vs extrovert vs ambivert? Introverts and extroverts are extreme opposites in personality types. For the longest time though, you were considered either one or the other. But, to be either an introvert or extrovert, you have to have more of one type of trait than the other. However, there’s another personality type - ambivert. It falls somewhere in the middle of the two extremes.
So, how does an introvert vs extrovert vs ambivert differ from one another?
People who are more outspoken, socially adept and confident are categorized as extroverts. While those who isolate themselves, are more formal, talk less, and prefer to stay out of the spotlight are often labeled introverts. While the ambivert personality types are more flexible and able to adjust quite well in most situations. They like social settings and the company of others, but they also enjoy solitude.
Understanding these different personality types helps us identify strengths and weaknesses, and allows us to cooperate better with others.

Here are some things introverts want you to know about them! If you’re an extrovert, chances are, you don’t fully understand introverts, or some of the things they do. And if you’re an introvert, you likely feel misunderstood a lot of the time… and will probably closely resonate with the things on this list.
When it comes to personality types, it’s typically introvert vs extrovert. (If you have the qualities of both, then you are an ambivert). But, the biggest difference between introverts and extroverts is that introverts gain energy from being alone. It’s very important for introverts to take the time to just be alone with their thoughts. But, that doesn’t mean they don’t know how to have fun!
One of the things introverts want you to know is that they are not necessarily shy or anti-social. They often get a bad rap as being people who hate to be around others. This simply isn’t true. Not all introverts hate socializing, and not all of them are terrible at talking to others.
Often extroverts will go out of their way to try to make introverts more like them. However, one of the most important things introverts wish you knew about them is the fact that you cannot make them more extroverted! It’s just the way they are, and they want you to accept that.

There are certain things confident people don’t do and that sets them apart from everyone else. It’s important to understand that true confidence greatly differs from arrogance. And there are certain things that distinguish one from the other.
Learning how to be confident is an important part of self improvement. When people believe in themselves and their abilities, there are things they simply don’t do. For example, they don’t over-focus on appearance. That’s because when someone is self confident, they have a healthy relationship with their appearance. They don't try to be someone they're not, because they understand that self acceptance is a vital element of self confidence.
Furthermore, self assured people get their sense of satisfaction from their own accomplishments. They understand that success comes with continuously improving their strengths. They’re also able to accept their own weaknesses, and instead of complaining, they just put more time and effort into endeavors where they know they'll have more likelihood of success.
When it comes to self confidence, truly confident people tend to have the upper hand. Not only do they make things happen, but they inspire others as well. So learn to embrace these behaviors yourself to increase your odds for success. This, in turn, will lead to more confidence.

We bet you didn’t know about the many amazing health benefits of Apple Cider Vinegar uses! You may be wondering how is ACV different from other types of vinegar. Well, apples have many well-known health benefits. According to studies, apple consumption can improve the intestinal environment. This delicious fruit also contains a variety of phytochemicals that act as antioxidants. Thus, apples in a form of vinegar provide some of the health benefits of whole apples. But in a concentrated, liquid form instead.
The process of making apple cider vinegar is simple. First, yeasts are added to the crushed apples. They ferment the sugars into alcohol. Then, bacteria converts the alcohol into acetic acid. Acetic acid is the main ingredient in vinegar, giving it its antiseptic properties. During the fermentation process, there is buildup called the "mother". The mother contains most of the beneficial ingredients of ACV. It's made up of friendly bacteria, enzymes and strands of proteins. The mother gives apple cider vinegar that distinctive murky appearance.
Apple vinegar can stop hiccups, regulate digestion and help with weight loss. It also helps with blood sugar regulation and detoxification. But, raw apple cider vinegar uses include personal care as well! Such as a natural teeth whitening solution, or a soothing aid for sunburn. You can also make a fruit fly trap, or use it as a natural household cleaner.
You may already have a bottle of Braggs Apple Cider Vinegar in your kitchen, so watch this video to learn about different ways to use it!

Narcissists appear to fear nothing, but in reality, there are many things that terrify narcissists to their core! Narcissistic people thrive on their illusion of self worth. When they look in a mirror, they only see what they want to. Of course, they see themselves as perfect. They have an inflated ego, and they lack care for anything but themselves.
People with narcissistic personality disorder need attention. However, when a narcissist is ignored, they go into a fit! They also fear rejection - a lot. When you reject them, you are rejecting the person they want to be. In fact, abandonment is one of the things narcissists fear most.
Narcissistic people typically get worse with age. That’s because with age comes many negative things that they simply cannot handle. Thus, the older they get, the crankier they become. While there are numerous things that terrify narcissists to their core, what it all comes down to is their constant need to be in control of everything.

This video highlights the things highly intuitive people do differently! Do you ever look back at something and wonder how it would have turned out if you’d actually followed your gut feeling? Well, that feeling is your intuition. Your intuition is subconsciously forming your decisions and opinions. It warns you of potential danger, and helps guide you through important points in your life.
Intuition is an artifact of the early days of man when the brain’s ability to detect hidden dangers ensured our survival. But, in this modern day and age, most of us use this capability so little that we don’t really know how to listen to it properly. It seems that we’ve been giving intuition far too little respect! Having said that, some people are more intuitive than others, and there are things highly intuitive people do differently!
While cognitive science is beginning to clarify the presence of unconscious reasoning in our lives and thoughts, there is one major difference that separates highly intuitive people from everyone else. And the difference is trust. Many of us block out our own intuitive knowing of what we should do in a given situation, because we are accustomed to more logical and rational thinking, whereas highly intuitive people know how to trust themselves.

Do you want to quit your job? Then consider the following signs you need to leave your job and find another. You may say that you're not a quitter… but when it comes to work, sometimes you need to be! Whether a better opportunity comes along, or you simply outgrow your current job. But how do you know when to quit your job and move on?
It often takes us years, sometimes even decades, before we realize what we were truly meant to do. Sometimes, it’s not about company stability or your professional goals that make you want to quit your job. Rather, it’s because of an innate feeling that where you are is not where you’re meant to be. This feeling is hard to ignore, and you shouldn’t. Your gut feeling is probably one of the most important signs you need to leave your job - and you should probably listen.
We often think of quitting a job as a negative thing, but that’s not necessary true. In fact, at times it can be quite liberating. When a job has nothing left to offer you, the best thing to do is to find a position that does. However, if you do decide that you want to quit your job, be smart about it. Your resignation should be strategic and more importantly, properly timed.

Honesty is something that many people claim to have, however, there are things only truly honest people understand. Their personality allows them to have unique perspectives to situations, and they would rather speak their minds than pretend to be something they are not.
Because when you lie, you are not free. Living in falsehood and constant lies and dishonesty eventually catches up with people. While being honest may have its pros and cons, it’s important that we all learn to speak the truth. That’s the only way we can build trust with others and establish solid relationships.
Brutally honest people understand this more than anything! They also know that honesty is generally appreciated by others – even if they don’t do so right away.

Learn about some of the most incredible health benefits of ginger! When you first think of ginger, you probably think of gingerbread cookies, or ginger ale, the carbonated soft drink. Indeed, ginger is a delicious spice that offers a great way to turn up the flavor in your diet! There are so many ways to use ginger!
Whether you want to use it in your cooked meals, drink it as a tea, or press it into fresh juice, you’ll be able to reap all the amazing health benefits of ginger. However, when you’re picking out your pieces of ginger root, make sure they are firm to the touch, and look out for discolorations or soft spots. Also, the bigger the piece of ginger, the older it is and the more pungent its flavor will be!
Ginger health benefits are numerous, but it’s important to note that this powerful herb may cause side effects for those suffering from gallstones. That’s because it incites the release of bile from the gallbladder. Therefore, if this sort of condition is expected, or if you have a history of gallbladder conditions, it is best to consult a doctor before consuming ginger.

While apologizing for things you’ve done wrong is important, there are certain things you should never apologize for. Of course, you should admit to your mistakes and make amends, but there’s no need to say sorry when there’s no reason to do so.
Yes, letting others know that you are remorseful for your wrong doings is an essential part of emotional intelligence. It reflects strong interpersonal skills, releases you from guilt, and it restores trust between you and the other person. But, sometimes you may find yourself apologizing only because you care too much about what others think. And you may not even realize that people view excessive apologies as weakness, or worse, as a lack of confidence.
It’s completely normal to feel sorry, but there’s no need to apologize for things or situations where you have done nothing wrong!

If you have these signs, then you have a strong personality that others may find intimidating! Some people assume that such a label is just a polite way of saying that a person is loud and obnoxious. But there’s a big difference between these and a more general strength of character. Someone with strong personality traits radiates self confidence.
An intimidating personality is a result of being thoughtful and well-informed. Someone like this may use their instinct to guide them - at the same time, they have a very rational approach to problem solving. They are passionately determined in the way they act on their beliefs, and they aren’t afraid to be their true selves. A person who has a strong character, does not rely on other people to tell them who they are, what they are, or what they can do!
If you have a strong intimidating personality, people usually don’t understand the kind of person they are dealing with. Some may even think that you are difficult to be around! That’s because they just can’t understand how you can be so comfortable with yourself. But you only come across as intimidating because you actually challenge others to be the best version of themselves.

Intelligence is broken down into 9 types of intelligence, also called the nine domains of intelligence. The theory of multiply intelligences was first theorized by developmental psychologist Howard Gardner, in 1983. What other scientists thought were only soft-skills, Gardener realized were actually different types of intelligence. As it turns out, being good at math or languages are not the only two ways to be smart!
When you hear the word “intelligence” you immediately think of someone with a super high IQ. Or, someone who’s book smart or street smart. But, intelligence can mean different things to different people. We all have strengths and weaknesses in different areas, and have the ability to discover, harness and develop our strengths. Yes, talent is intelligence combined with effort! Many talented people spend a great deal of time honing their intellect until it becomes an apparently effortless endeavor on their part.
Watch this video to learn more, so you’ll be able to have a basic understanding of which intelligence you are strong at, and which areas you may need to work a bit more. Yes, you may possess multiple intelligences - since most of us have more than one strength in general.

We'll give you 10 reasons to ignore what other people think of you! We all want to be liked and accepted by others. However, what others think about us can often adversely impact the choices we make and the things we do. This desire to conform can conflict with our ability to lead independent and rich lives. But, how to stop worrying about what others think of you?
For sure, this is not going to be easy… We go through our days thinking about how other people may be judging us. But more than likely, those people are thinking the exact same thing. In fact, people generally don’t think outside themselves all that much. And these are some pretty solid reasons to stop caring about what other people think. Don’t you think?

Let's look at some of the signs of fake nice people who you need to avoid. Trying to tell the difference between someone who is genuinely nice and someone who is faking it can be a bit challenging. That’s because some people are really good at hiding their true emotions! But, as good as they are, there are still some clues that give away their personality - and knowing these can come in handy.
Paying attention to the signs of fake nice people is something worth doing. Yes, in some cases, it’s acceptable to put on an act, if not doing so would seriously mess things up. We’ve all been in situations like that. But generally speaking, a truly authentic person is the same on the outside as they are on the inside; while a fake person expresses attitudes, behaviors, and thoughts that aren't truly their own.
These individuals quickly turn into toxic friends and toxic relationships. That’s why it’s important to be able to recognize fake nice people, so you can avoid them. It’s best to keep an eye out for these kind of people, and make room for more genuine relationships in your life.

There are things only smart people do… Because they’re better than those who aren’t regarded as such, right? Well, not necessarily. However, smart people are dedicated and regimented individuals. They are persevering through the challenges of life, while performing a plethora of tasks on a daily basis to stay at the top of their game.
So, how is smartness determined? What does it mean when someone refers to these individuals as smart people? Does it mean having a high IQ? Significant talents? Maybe it’s all of those things. Perhaps, it’s none of those things. We don’t really know, since what we think of when we say someone is smart, isn’t a specific, measurable personality trait. It’s more of a combination of all of the above. Plus other characteristics that we may not even be aware of.
In this video, we take a look at some things smart people tend to do. If you already do these things, keep it up. If you don’t, you’ll probably want to start implementing some of the things mentioned in our list.

In this video, we are going to list some common reasons why people ignore you! We’ve all been there… whether it was a first date who seemed interested but never called back; or a friend who suddenly seems to have dropped off the face of the Earth.
Being ignored by someone is a rather unpleasant situation to be in. You find yourself wondering if you did something wrong to push people away. In certain situations, it has nothing to do with what you did or didn’t do… Sometimes, there are people who just don’t like us. And that’s normal – after all, we all have different personalities, values and views of the world. Other times however, there are indeed reasons why people ignore you - you likely did something (probably unknowingly) to provoke the silence.
This list will show what those things are, so you can correct any mistakes you might have made to chase some people away.

Highly intelligent people may seem to have it better in life, but these struggles prove that isn’t always the case! Intelligence is defined as the ability to acquire and apply knowledge. When someone refers to you as being intelligent, they imply that you are special in terms of brain function and general conduct.
That being said, it’s easy to assume that having a high IQ would come with several privileges. For example, you wouldn't have to study as hard for tests. You'd read about complicated concepts and be able to grasp them immediately. In fact, all that may be true! But, there are difficulties and challenges that only highly intelligent people will experience.
Besides these struggles, there are several personality traits of highly intelligent people that set them apart from the rest. Many of these traits have to do with their intense feelings and emotions. Others, with their distinctive socially awkward interactions. These traits often make them misunderstood and underestimated.
The research in this video simply outlines some of the most common struggles that only highly intelligent people have.
